Philippians 1:7

Philippians 1:7

A Man in Rome carries the Philippian Church in his heart.

I. He who carries the world elsewhere than in his heart will soon wish to cast off his burden.

II. He who carries the good in his heart will never be desolate.

III. He whose heart is engaged with the tender offices of affection is the profoundest interpreter and the most efficient servant of mankind.

IV. He who enshrines his benefactors in his heart has broken the dominion of selfishness.

Parker, City Temple,vol. ii., p. 179.
